5.0 out of 5 stars cartoon all stars to the rescue, July 13, 2008
This review is from: Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue (VHS Tape)
I'm an elementary teacher that loves to use this movie. It explains the dangers of drug addiction not only to the body, but how it affects the lives of an entire family better than anything else I have used. Even if my fourth grade students have seen it before, they still enjoy it. Being a little older only brings to light more knowledge and understanding. I wish it would be updated in a DVD format so its life would last longer. Many schools only have DVD equipment now. Please someone....this is a worth while project. Without continual education to the facts about drugs, our children will be sucked in.....this should be shown to every school aged child year after year, adding more information about the drug culture as they are mature enough to understand. Education is one of the steps to prevention!!!!!!!

This review is from: Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue (VHS Tape)
I really don't understand the sudden stream of negativity concerning this Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue special feature. This was designed over 20 years ago to help kids stay far *far* away from drugs. Trust me, I remember 20 years ago all too well. I was in 2nd grade, and the teachers would always *every* *single* *day* beat into my head (and into the heads of my classmates) that drugs are extremely bad and that you should stay away from them no matter what.

The interesting thing here is that, this collection gathers all the popular cartoons from 20-30 years ago and miraculously combines them to create interesting results. In fact, going in, I wasn't expecting much out of this 25-minute cartoon. I thought all these cartoon chaaracters would just make a quick appearance, say "Drugs are bad" and that would be it.

No, these popular cartoon characters actually come together to tell a fantastic, realistic and well-explained story concerning the real life dangers and side effects of using drugs. Garfield and Alf communicate with each other, the Chipmunks and Winnie the Pooh strike up a conversation, Bugs Bunny and the purple evil ghost imitating the voice in your head encouraging you to give drugs a chance have their own predicament going on, etc.

The main focus however, is on a teenage boy and his younger sister, and how a family can be torn apart as a result of a drug user (the teenage boy) being reluctant to share that he's addicted to drugs. This is an honest and realistic side that you will NOT find on your Saturday morning cartoon shows, and it's honestly quite surprising hearing the Chipmunks in particular mention the name of these drugs. Take these cartoon characters, wrap an exciting and meaningful story around it, and now you have something worth paying attention to.

Too bad so many of my classmates never got the message and became hooked on drugs anyway. Should have been paying closer attention to this well-made cartoon!

5.0 out of 5 stars no to drugs, November 5, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue (VHS Tape)
This movie explains the Say No to Drugs theme in a way younger children can relate to. It might be scary for children under 10. My kids loved the characters and the way they help the girl. I would recommend it for anyone trying to drive the drug free message home.
